Is there a way to use SVG as content in a pseudo element ::before or ::after

by

I would like to use ::before to place SVG images before some selected elements:

#mydiv::before {
  content: '<svg ... code here</svg>';
  display: block;
  width: 22px;
  height: 10px;
  margin: 10px 5px 0 10px;
}

Above code just displays the plaintext.
I checked the spec and there seem to be some restrictions on what content can be. CSS content property solution is preferable.
